Results: Results showed that there were statistically positive significant differences between OCB and organizational culture, personality and internal control focus (p<0.001) in contrast with the reversed and significant differences between OCB and job stress (p<0.001).In addition there were statistically positive significant differences between various dimensions of OCB with each other (p<0.001). furthermore , between courtesy and organizational culture, control focus and personality, citizenship behavior and organizational culture, sacrifice with culture and personality and between conscience and culture, the statistically positive significant differences were observed in spite of the statistically negative significant differences between courtesy, citizenship behavior, conscience with job stress and also between conscience and personality(p<0.05).
Conclusion: reducing job stress , existing organizational justice and the group oriented organizational culture and also staff` characteristics the same as personality , control focus, etc can have an effective role on the incidence rate of Organizational Citizenship Behavior shown by staff in Shiraz University of Medical Sciences .
